Spoiler
24/22 - waste of time, it's not in danger and currently gives us a double shot when White fails to cover the slotted man. Forget that. Now, where do we want to dump our men? Not on the ace, of course; not on our already rather large stacks. 6/4 8/3 looks too wide open - after a hit and cover we're in bad shape anyway, but after a hit with no cover, do we really want to be shooting back with blots strewn everywhere? I think 10/3 - the man on 10 will be a liability as White's board fills in, and we do need to start building a board behind White's anchor ready for when we actually hit something.

10-3 the best choice for a bad roll.
No cube in sight yet, so no harm in posting a rollout
Spoiler
The Herd's choice is the least bad option
